The Pigeon on the cover of 'Nexus' - Explained by Yuval Noah Harari

Why is there a pigeon on the cover of 'Nexus'?This new book explores humanity's dramatic voyage into the Information Age, and includes historical examples of how carrier pigeons were used to communicate during war. However, the pigeon on the cover also symbolizes peace. The Hebrew Bible uses the same word for 'pigeon' and 'dove', and this bird announces the end of the flood in the biblical story of Noah. These days, we're living through an information flood that is threatening to destroy the world: we long for a sign that the flood is over and it's safe to go out. 'Nexus' aims to make sense of the current AI revolution, and the urgent choices we must now make to survive – and to thrive.Pre-order the book in your language at http://bit.ly/GetNEXUS.Out September 10, 2024.#NexusBook #AI #information #newbook #history #pigeon #YuvalNoahHarari
